ColourPop Disney Designer Collection - Swatches, Try On, and Review!

I was super excited when ColourPop announced their Disney Designer collection! I want to be a Disney princess when I grow up, so I pretty much had to have this collection!

Also, I requested that my husband buy me this collection for my birthday, and since I turn 32 today, I figured I should review my birthday gift!

The Disney Designer collection are the Princesses reimagined in the attire for the red carpet for their movie premieres in the year their movies were released - Tiana in 2009, Ariel in 1989, Belle in 1991, Jasmine in 1992, Snow White in 1937, and Cinderella in 1950. They all look so gorgeous and the packaging is stunning! The Designer collection is a bigger collection from Disney and includes dolls and accessories of all these princesses!

I picked up the collection from ColourPop on the first release, and I was able to pick up everything in the collection, except the 2 Super Shock Highlighters - those sold out immediately! So, I am swatching, trying on and reviewing the Shadow Palette, the Super Shock Shadows, the Creme Lux Lipsticks, and Ultra Glossy Lips.

The product that I was most excited about trying was the "It's a Princess Thing" eyeshadow palette! The packaging includes a gold box with the princesses autographs (from them walking the red carpet at their premieres)! And, the shadow palette has the princesses all lined up on the front and it is gorgeous!

The palette contains mattes, metallics, and satins - I like ColourPop eyeshadow formula, so I know that this should be a good palette!

The palette is a very pink and nudey with a few purples in there. I happen to like this palette for everyday wear - for me, my work looks are always neutrals and i can easily pull any day to day look together with this! It has lots of light transitions shades, medium shades to build and lots of shimmer for the lid! It can certainly be deepend up too. I think it's really pretty!

Chip ~ matte soft beige nude

Juju ~ matte warm rosy pink

Grumpy ~ matte dusty salmon

Triton ~ sand with a golden sheen

Abu ~ matte intense warm brown

Prince Charming ~ ivory pearl with a green duochrome

Ray ~ metallic champagne

Fairy Godmother ~ metallic bright coral

One Kiss? ~ metallic bright coppery gold

Thingamabob ~ vibrant metallic silver

Enchanted Rose ~ rich metallic rose

Poison Apple ~ metallic pinky violet

Magic Carpet ~ blackened plum

Beast ~ deep warm brown topped with gold glitter

Midnight Curfew ~ black sprinkled with silver glitter

Here is an eye look I created using the It's a Princess Thing shadow palette ~ I used Chip all over the lid as a base, Grumpy and Triton together in the crease, Abu to deepen the outer corner. Then I applied Enchanted Rose all over the lid, Magic Carpet in the outer corner, and a hint of One Kiss?in the middle of the lid. Then, I added Ray in the in inner corner, Prince Charming under the brow, with Beast and Fairy Godmother on the lower lash line.

I thought the shadows performed well - they all blended nicely and applied really nicely. There was good pigmentation, and the shadows lasted well too. The mattes were a little powdery with a little kick up, but I liked the application. The shimmers had such good pigmentation and they applied very nicely!

These ultra glossy lips are so cute - Bibbidi, Bobbidi, and Boo! Bibbidi is a clear shimmery gloss, while Bobbidi and Boo are a high shine formula with no shimmer it. I've never actually tried the ColourPop gloss formula, so I was excited to try these!

Bibbidi ~ This clear gloss with a golden sheen will transform any look

I used to love the Super Shock shadow formula - I haven't reached for mine in a while; but, at least the metallics are always a perfect lid shade! Each colour in the set of 6 corresponds to one of the Disney princesses featured in the designer collection.

Almost There ~ There ain’t nothing gonna stop you now in this deep bronze drenched with silver glitter!

Be Our Guest ~ If you’re stressed it’s this berry pink with a blue and violet sheen that we suggest!

Under The Sea ~ Darling it’s better in this bright seafoam green with a golden sheen.

A Whole New World ~ This icy lavender with pink, silver, and baby blue glitter is shining, shimmering, splendid!

So This Is Love ~ This soft pink with a frosted finish is what makes life divine.

These are all so pretty! They are all good quality shadows and wear well - the formula is a creamy shadow formula so it may not be for everyone (like I said, I often forget to reach for them, but I do like them!). I will have makeup looks further in this post with their Disney princess lipsticks!

ColourPop Disney Designer Creme Lux Lipsticks ~ $6.00 US each. LUX it up. Enriched with our LUX Blend of hydrating butters, this creamy-matte, long wearing lipstick glides on the lips for intense pigmentation in shades made for every skin tone.

The ColourPop lipsticks are new to me as well - I've actually purchased 2 before; but, I still haven't tried them yet! Again, each lipstick corresponds with a princess and they are named after them! There seems to be a good range of shades with all the princesses. My only thought is the packaging - they are all gold with all the signatures on all of them, so they look the exact same. I wish there was something on each lipstick to show which princess they belong to, without having to look at the bottom of the package.

Tiana ~ There’s no denying, this deep oxblood red will make you feel like Evangeline.

I really liked the lipstick formula - I thought they wore well. I wore a couple of them for a long time and they surprisingly lasted for hours and wore well! They didn't come off on everything right away, and wore away nicely after a few hours. They were also really comfortable on the lips!

Here are each Creme Lux Lipsticks and their matching princess Super Shock Shadow on - each look will have the shadow on the lower lash line!

The Jasmine look features a bright pink lipstick, and a purple super shock shadow!

Jasmine is a fair bit brighter of a pink lipstick, than I would normally reach for; but, it's a really pretty pink! The A Whole New World shadow is pretty and a little on the sheer side - it had to be built up to see on me here!

Snow White is a really true red, and the shadow is a nice icy shade!

So, for convenience sake, I left my base makeup the same for all of these looks - unfortunately, this blush is not matching my look at all. This is actually a stunning red lip colour - I love it! It's not a normal shade for me, but I feel like I have to wear it more! The Heigh-Ho shadow is really pretty too!

Tiana is a really deep oxblood red and the shadow is a beautiful metallic brown!

Alright, again the blush doesn't match and I don't really think this lipstick is for me! It's a pretty deep shade and not something I would tend to reach for! Also, this shadow Almost There would be perfect all over the lid - not the best only under the eye!

Belle are the shades that seem the most me - a beautiful rosy lipstick and a pretty pink shadow!

I love this lipstick so much - it is perfect for me! I think it matches my skin tone well and it's just a beautiful shade! Also, I actually quite like this pink Be Our Guest shadow on the lower lash line!

The Ariel shades seems right up my alley too - the peachy nude lipstick is so pretty, and the pictures do not do this shadow justice! It's stunning!

I really like both of these products - again, my base blush needs to be peachy to match; but, overall these 2 are great! Under The Sea surprised me with how green it was - but it's a really unique shade!

I did think the Cinderella lipstick may be too pink; but, this So This Is Love shadow is my favorite shadow of the whole collection - this will be amazing on the lid!

I thought this pink was much more wearable than I thought it would be! Both of these shades were really pretty!

I think I've shared as much as I can about this collection - overall, I'm very happy with all the products in this collection! I think it's beautiful and I love Disney Princesses so I think this is just a great collection!
